Abstract: An apparatus including an image sensor that photoelectrically converts visible light and invisible light. Image data output by the image sensor is separated into visible light image data and invisible light image data. In a first process, an invisible light flicker period is detected from the invisible light image data, and the image sensor is controlled, based on the detected invisible light flicker period, such that invisible light flicker is not generated in the image data, and in a second process, a visible light flicker period is detected from the visible light image data separated in a state in which invisible light flicker is not generated in the image data, and the image sensor is controlled, based on the invisible light flicker period and the detected visible light flicker period, such that invisible light flicker and visible light flicker are not generated in the image data.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a display unit configured to display an image captured via an optical system, an estimation unit configured to estimate a gazing point position of a user on a display unit, and a control unit configured to change a zoom position of an image displayed on the display unit. When start is instructed of image pickup assist control, the control unit zooms out the image displayed on the display unit from a first zoom position to a second zoom position on more wide-angle side than the first zoom position. When stop is instructed of the image pickup assist control, the control unit zooms in on a zoom-out image from the second zoom position to a third zoom position on more telephoto side than the second zoom position, based on the gazing point position estimated by the estimation unit.

Abstract: An image capture apparatus comprises an image sensor and an adjustment circuit that adjusts a drive timing of the image sensor. The adjustment circuit, in a case where a second drive time period, which is a drive time period of the image sensor for still image shooting, overlaps with a first drive time period, which is a drive time period of the image sensor for moving image shooting, changes a start timing of the second drive time period to a timing that is based on a movement direction and a movement amount of a main subject.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus has a plurality of image processing circuits, each having a local memory, an image processing unit, and a communication unit communicating with other image processing circuits. A first image processing circuit among the plurality of image processing circuits has a decoder which decodes encoded RAW moving image data to store the decoded RAW moving image data in the local memory, a determiner which determines areas out of the obtained frame that the plurality of image processing circuits respectively process, and a transmitter which transmits RAW image data of the determined areas to other image processing circuit. The determiner sets the size of the area in the frame that the first image processing circuit processes to be smaller than the size of area that the other image processing circuit processes.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus performs first image processing of processing a target image as a processing target and writing a first image as a processing result in a storage, and second image processing of reading out the first image written in the storage, processing the first image, and outputting a second image as a processing result. The first image processing and the second image processing are performed for each of a plurality of regions. Readout of the first image in the second image processing is performed in parallel with writing of the first image in the first image processing. A size of a second region defined for the first image as a processing target of the second image processing is set to be smaller than a size of a first region defined for a processing target image of the first image processing.
